Romanos 7:16 Meaning and Commentary

Romans 7:16

If then I do that which I would not
This is a corollary, or an inference from what he had related of his own experience; that since what he did, though it was contrary to the law of God, yet was what he did not will nor allow of, but hated, it must be a clear point, that he

consented to the law, that it was good;
lovely and amiable; that it forbad those things which were hateful, and commanded those things which were desirable to a good man; and so is acknowledged to be a very beautiful rule of obedience, walk, and conversation.

Romanos 7:16 In-Context

14 Porque bem sabemos que a lei é espiritual; mas eu sou carnal, vendido sob o pecado.
15 Pois o que faço, não o entendo; porque o que quero, isso não pratico; mas o que aborreço, isso faço.
16 E, se faço o que não quero, consinto com a lei, que é boa.
17 Agora, porém, não sou mais eu que faço isto, mas o pecado que habita em mim.
18 Porque eu sei que em mim, isto é, na minha carne, não habita bem algum; com efeito o querer o bem está em mim, mas o efetuá-lo não está.
